203. Hosanna, Raise the Pealing Hymn

1 Hosanna, raise the pealing hymn
To David’s son and Lord;
With cherubim and seraphim
Exalt th’incarnate Word,
Exalt th’incarnate Word.

2 Hosanna, Sovereign, Prophet, Priest,
How vast Thy gifts, how free;
Thy blood, our life; Thy word, our feast;
Thy name, our only plea,
Thy name, our only plea.

3 Hosanna, Master, lo, we bring
Our off’rings to Thy throne;
Not gold, nor myrrh, nor mortal thing,
But hearts to be Thine own,
But hearts to be Thine own.

4 O Saviour, if, redeemed by Thee,
Thy temple we behold,
Hosannas thro’ eternity
We’ll sing to harps of gold,
We’ll sing to harps of god.
